French urban artist Zalez at Finearte Gallery

Some artists give much importance to the speech which comes along with their works whereas others privilege the object. Zalez belongs to the second category. At the beginning, Zalez wishes to follow a conventional way mainly in the idea to acquire school skills. He attended design school in Montpellier initially, then visual arts at Toulouse Fine Arts school. Very quickly, he felt wrongly understood, and criticized. Then he decided to go on his own. Thus, refusing for himself any compromise, Zalez prefers to let its works speak about itself.


















To carry out its canvas, Zalez uses the stencil again. As a "pochoirist "Zalez makes the difference by proposing a contemporary vision of his technique. Its canvas represents nude and lascivious women. Once again, he is lingering on the depiction of a certain female stereotype. The artist Intends to attract our attention by seizing the artificial image of the woman who is strongly depicted by the press and the advertisement. According to Zalez it is a modified and overrated image, which we ended up taking for model. The spectator leaves him seduced and shares the artist vision. He seems to tirelessly seek to appease a search, a phantasm.














Zalez's paintings are exhibited at the gallery from 20 May 2011.
